LET YOUR FAVORITES IN & KEEP OUT THE RIFF RAFF
NO-NONSENSE NOTIFICATIONS

Notifications can either be the foil of productivity or the difference between making or missing a flight. It’s important that your notifications don’t get so out of hand that you can’t keep up with them. Here are all the ways that you can organize, eliminate, or emphasize certain notifications so that you stay informed about the things you want.

Free Yourself of Disturbances

Do Not Disturb is a mode that lets you silence calls, notifications, texts, and more. To set up Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, first open Settings. Tap Focus. Tap Do Not Disturb. Under the section People, choose which people you would like to be able to contact you while in Do Not Disturb. Under the section Apps, choose which apps can send you notifications while you are in Do Not Disturb. Tapping on options will allow you to turn Show On Lock Screen, Dim Lock Screen, and Hide Notification Badges on or off. Hide Notification Badges is such a fantastic way to truly be completely untouchable. Lastly, putting Do Not Disturb on a schedule is a great way to ensure that you never get woken up by rogue notifications in the night. There are a million excellent reasons to employ the Do Not Disturb schedule feature.

LOCK YOUR APPLE ID WITH A PHYSICAL KEY

Security keys are physical items that can be used to verify your identity when logging into your Apple ID. If you are planning to use security keys, make sure you have at least two. Apple requires you use two, so that if you lose one, you will have another as a backup. At iPhone Life, a brand we recommend is the Yubico Yubikey 5Ci ($75).

WHY I DITCHED MY APPLE WATCH FOR THE OURA RING

Every morning for the past three months, I wake up wearing a shiny gold ring on my right pointer finger. If you look closely, you can see beams of red or green light leaking out the sides as it scans my heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature. I roll out of bed, grab my phone, and open the Oura app.

OPINION: I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE WITH APPLE VISION PRO, AND IT SUCKS.

Color me a virtual-reality optimist. Alongside writing for iPhone Life, I’m a video game developer, 3D artist, and sci-fi author. I own a Meta Quest 3 and use it all the time to play games and view 3D models as I work.
